Looking Under a Better Lamppost: MeV-scale Dark Matter Candidates
·
Abstract
Two well-motivated dark matter candidates are weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) and weakly interacting sub-eV particles (WISPs) (e.g. axions). A new gamma-ray telescope that is optimized for MeV energies would allow us to explore new areas of dark matter parameter space and provide unprecedented access to its particle nature.
